Screen Actors Guild Announces New Code of Conduct

Following the Time’s Up and #MeToo movements, the Screen Actors Guild has announced new code of conducts. Brie Larson and Lupita Nyong’o made the announcement at the SAG Awards this weekend.

“It gives us joy to celebrate portrayals…that show human nature with all its imperfections, and to do so with a union whose job it is to protect actors as they do that job,” began Lupita.

“Which is why were so excited to say that—with collaborations with Times Up and your union members here in this room—there will be a new code of conduct to ensure that there is safety on set,” said Brie, adding, “so we can continue to be vulnerable, continue to be emphatic, and do the strong and great performances that we’ve seen brief glimpse of here tonight.”
